Description:

Cephalosporium acremonium, a saprophytic fungus mold, can spread to humans through air, materials, and drinking water. Exposure can occur through inhalation, contact, and ingestion, leading to Type 1 IgE hypersensitivity and a range of respiratory and cutaneous allergic conditions, including allergic rhinitis, asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonia, allergic alveolitis, anaphylaxis, and atopic dermatitis.
